Question

Was it hypocritical that the 1955 Montgomery city code allowed “Negro nurses” to sit in the “white section” of the bus if they were attending white people who needed their care?

Answer 1

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

It is hypocritical because racism and segregation did not apply if a white person was being tended to by the nurses. This means that while they are not equal or important when it comes to the law they are equal and important if they happen to have a white patient who needs them. And they can't be both at the same time.
